R. Chisholm on Analyticity/Syntheticity - Dictionary of Arguments
II 64 Analytical/Chisholm: early: a preposition is analytical for which there is a conjunctive property such that it and the S property include one another (inclusion) and the P property is one of its sub-properties - late: different property relations: implicy and involve - (Involve/Chisholm: that which contains one also contains the other). II 66f Analytical/Language/Meaning Postulates/ChisholmVsCarnap: Problem: different intensional structure: E.g. squares have the conjunctive property of being rectangular and equilateral, or conjunctive property of being rectangular and have mutually perpendicular diagonals - same extension, different meaning, hence different properties. II 67 Carnap: the property expressions are L equivalent because of the rules of language (meaning postulates). ChisholmVsCarnap: for him it is not about the intensional structure, but about the structure of properties themselves. >Intensionality, >Meaning postulates, >Extensions. Sauer, W.
